TOMBSTONE "Best Doc Holiday Scenes" Part 2 (1993) Val Kilmer 

I was diagnosed with TB 15 years ago got it from uncle smh... just to think it was a death sentence 100 years ago is scary...

@@franksaint84 I had a positive PPD(I think thats what its called?) back in the military. Had to take INH (drug for TB now) for months before I was done. And even now I cant get a PPD done again. And yeah, its scary a/f thinking that if we were born 100 years ago we would be dead at 20-30 from TB.

​@@shaylethorne2387TB was still rife in Ireland post-WW2/1950s, and massive cause early infant mortality.

It's back now with the migrants!

Too bad there isn't very many honest people like that lol.

They infact hated eachother and fell out over a woman. No one knows how Jonny died, wyatt never visited him in any hospital upon his death.

I've been a Doc a small handfull of times in my life, & also friends have bailed me out. One time however I did look like the Devil Himself, riding the shotgun strollin down to guys like Ike n friends.

@@potterj09 what?

only in movies...

Johnny Ringo - I was just fooling about Doc Holiday - I wasn't Johnny Ringo - I'm fucked.!!

"I wasn't" ... the change of tone in his voice when delivering that line was perfect

“You’re gonna die with your boots on” used to be a phrase that essentially meant “live by the sword, die by the sword.” He’d been told that his whole life whenever he did anything extra… Doc Hollidayish. Before he died, he noticed his toes and got one last HEH out at their expense.

I was looking through the comment section to find this exact explanation... Thank you

From what I understand Doc died with a laugh (recorded history). But it's not clear why he laughed. So the movie gave one interpretation

This movie has a few truths to it, but it's definitely fiction

And he never killed Johhny. He wasn't even in the same state. A post office worker found him. He had mental issues and shot himself

Yep 👍

In this case, it is really true.

Doc pretending he will come with him, then faking being super ill and that he can't. Only to go himself and take out the man that Wyatt knew would kill him is one of the best moments on film. Wyatt is thinking that this fucking guy is close to death and still beat this guy who easily had the beating of me.

​@@jamiestewart48right, wyatt was still a badass for showing, esp after doc told him the harsh truth that he will die

@@marked4death076 Facts. The true definition of a man.

WRONG!! If you ever have any little feeling for me,leave. That is what he said. So get it right!!!

​​​​@@mytube-vm3ft "Wyatt, if you were ever my friend - if ya ever had even the slightest of feelin' for me, leave now." Both of you, get it right 😂😂

that aint friendship, thats brotherhood. Doc is and will always be an Earp, if not by name, than by bond.

Don't forget 'The Abyss'....he was totally badass brilliant as the (Navy Seal) villain!!

Personally I love him.

Wish he was in more stuff.

Agreed. He deserves more recognition.

He's a incredible actor.

Damned straight

He probably didn't participate in the Hollywood satanic club..

I completely agree. Best role he ever played!

Val Kilmer should be nominated for best supporting actor in this movie

@@allanantoniodelapena4015 Totally agree. This was the 66th Academy Awards, and imo the Best Actor category was simply full of better performances for him to get a spot there, but he surely deserved a nomination in the Best Supporting Actor category that year.

Val took an ice bath just prior to the death scene to give it more of a realistic look.

@@kimoneill7505 that is a wild detail

who won it?

@@toddamusroberts1397 Tom Hanks in Philadelphia.

Val getting cheated was like Paul Newman getting cheated out of his Oscar in the 60s. They gave it to him in 1986 as an apology and he never bothered to show up to receive it.

Incredible my friend

100% agree

Young Guns is up there, imo. Good fight.

Absolutely, the dialogue is excellent. The attention to detail as well. The clothing, guns, leather all period correct.

I didn't like how the star, had a gay friend who was special in some spiritual way just because he was gay. Wyatt left his wife for a star, who was actually kind of a big whore. Val Kilmer and his role was the biggest reason this movie is so spectacular. The fashion is beautiful too. I just think Wyatt should've helped his wife at that point in time, with her addiction, as there were so few options for women to make money.

I Have to disagree. Lonesome dove 🕊 is the best.

iam your huckle berry. iam your pall bearer

@@reggreenslade5769 "Some folks think that Holliday may have said something else in real life. He might’ve said, “I’m your huckle bearer.” In the South, a huckle was a casket handle. A huckle bearer would be the person carrying a coffin, essentially a pallbearer. According to this theory, what Holliday should have said in the film is, “I’m your huckle bearer.” The theory goes that Val Kilmer accidentally said huckleberry instead, and the line stuck. There are a couple of problems with that explanation, though. First, no official copy of the script has ever been seen with the words “huckle bearer” used. Second, Val Kilmer maintains that the line written in the script was huckleberry, and Kilmer even titled his autobiography I’m Your Huckleberry. So what’s the truth about Holliday’s famous catch-phrase? Another Southern slang usage of huckleberry was “the right person for the job.” In both instances of Holliday using the phrase in the film, Johnny Ringo is hoping to spark violence. What Holliday is saying to Johnny Ringo is that if he’s looking for trouble, Holliday’s the guy to give it to him." He said huckleberry. And he meant it.

@@jaydee3730 nice! Thanks for the info.

​@@jaydee3730 no sir you are totally incorrect I know for a fact that Doc Holliday used to say Gs up hoes down at the OK corral and he was also known to smack a bitch up whilst sipping on Gin and juice

@@jaydee3730do you know the reason everyone calls Doc “Lunger”?

That’s why he hates him as well. In the bar scene. The more he learned about ringo the more he hated him, because they were one in the same, but dingo wasn’t sick physically, he was sick mentally. Incredible writing and illusory work.

​@@Vaga-Bard Absolutely you missed the point

"Say When"

Oooof

"I was just foolin' about." "I wasn't."

And fear when he realized it was Doc instead of Wyatt and he knew, deep down, he was not as fast as Doc Holliday and was about to die. Great facial scene by Michael Biehn, you can see the astonishment and fear in that look on his face. Remarkable performance.

Absolutely.. His eyes change as he readies for d fight.. It is great acting

Pretty good in HEAT

He's the best!

You got ice man and his crew.. there gay

It really doesn’t get any better than this. The finest of acting performance by the entire cast. 4:29

To me, Val Kilmer stole the show in this movie.

Kilmer was one of the best character actors around when he played a part he was that character ..

Doc: Well... Just being honest, Earp. Don't wanna go to hell being a liya to ya. *cough cough*

I know you are joking lol but I always loved that scene because you could see he had accepted his fate. He knew he was walking into a hopeless fight, and he still chose to go. That takes a kind of grit that is quite rare.

Wyatt: well sometimes maybe a white lie would do a feller good in his time of need. Doc: oh poor you, let me play the violin for you.

Loved how Ringo was scared as shit he was docs kill no matter how hard he tried your no Daisy no Daisy at all

I love how he says it

Facts bro

That's a good'un, but, for ME, "Why, Johnny RINGO, you looked like somebody just WALKED over your grave" is tops.

I agree. Two close friends parting company. One passing, the other moving on. Stella performances from both men.

"Alright lunger, let's do it!".

I think he realized just how sick Doc was, so he thought he had an actual chance.

@@DaveCM I think he just realized there was no other way around it... so he was like "maaaybe I can do it" he's convincing himself that he can. Even though there's no way, he's got no chance at all if he doesn't think he can win.

@@davidpeters6743 very valid

Michael Biehn was asked about meeting Val Kilmer during filming of Tombstone. He said he never met Val because Val Kilmer stayed in Doc character at all times

That is something I didn't think about.

It was Doc’s accuracy too, not just how fast he can draw his pistol. He went straight to the temple, as even a chest shot with Ringo drawing that fast would result in him getting shot as well most likely. He had to take him out with the most debilitating shot, and shot from the hip where Ringo went higher (what he learned about his draw before) with his gun. Doc Holliday at least Val Kilmer’s portrayal did not play!

Definitely got the vibe he was making that analysis partially about himself.

He does say he reminds him of him.

Phenomenal

Because of how wild Doc chose to live, he expected to die with his boots on.

In your opinion and that of a lot of other people. He was phenomenal in this movie. He never topped himself after this.

Same here I truly love this movie now that I’ve finally seen it

Same

LOL!!

From Urban Dictionary: Huckle bearer is a nonexistent word that is claimed to have been used in the South to mean the same as 'pallbearer' during the 1800s. This is based on the claim that the term huckle referred to a coffin handle. This term was made up out of whole cloth by a 'historian' engaged in blatant speculation after the release of the movie Tombstone, where Doc Holliday, played by Val Kilmer, utters the famous line "I'm your huckleberry." The claim is that the real Doc Holliday said 'I'm your hucklebearer." Some also claim that this is the correct line from the movie. It is all complete nonsense. There is no evidence that this term ever existed. "I'm your huckleberry" is a well-attested English idiom that was used during the 1800s and is still used in some parts of the South today. It probably does not come from Mark Twain's character Huckleberry Finn since it seems to have existed before the novel was published. It means "I'm your man" or "I'm the man for the job."

@@robh913 Spot-on correct. "Huckle bearer" is made up nonsense. Can't be found in a single piece of literature or anywhere else prior to appearing on the internet. Makes zero sense, anyway.

Never knew what he meant until you comment, thanks!

@@williamwood5008 You're welcome.👍👍

You can see how badly he wanted to die on his feet bested by a truly better rival but he never came across that man

It was his plan to die in a gun fight, he had set his mind to do what he wanted to when he wanted to. His friendship with Wyatt was a fluke in Docs plan. But, he knew Wyatt would never let him down. Wyatt also knew Doc would never let him down that way the only people each of them really every fully trusted. And they were right Doc wanted Wyatt to live the life he had planned for himself. That's the reason he told Wyatt to live for me.
